Abstract Data results supporting IA2017 Indicator Proportion of large fish (Large Fish Index). Fishing mortality constrains the age structure of fish communities, reducing the proportion of older individuals. The assessment determines the suite of species constituting the demersal fish community and the length criteria defining large fish. The proportion of the demersal fish biomass that has a length exceeding the length criteria can then be calculated. [Version 001]
